Some of you WAX regulars out there may or may not have met Raney, our exceptionally talented lash extension specialist and makeup artist. She works by appointment, and she is the BOMB. Check out her work
here. Always professional (but not without good jokes), Raney is great for brides looking for lashes, makeup or hair (or all three…)for their big day. Find out what she’s addicted to for the month of November!
1.) My gray cashmere Grandpa sweater: I’ve already sewn up holes in the armpits once, but seeing as it still has all the original buttons I think it has many more years on the favorites list.
2.) Moisture Rich Body Lotion from Clarins: This body lotion is greasy in SUCH a good way. It smells good, feels good. Hint: Go see Gorganne at Bloomie’s Lenox-she’s the bomb-diggity and the only person I buy Clarins products from. Thank God they make an economy size of this stuff!
3.)
Haribo Gummy Bears: I shouldn’t even have to justify this one. These have the best flavor of any gummy bear-hands down. They’re an aerobic workout for your jaw, but mmm….those clear ones? Wha??
4.) Pandora Radio: since I’m too lazy and cheap for iTunes, this is a staple in the O’Keefe abode. I rock a power shuffle of Air Supply, Hall and Oates (poor Oates), and The Pretenders one night. The next night I’ll cut a rug to Kermit Ruffins or the Rebirth Brass Band. Then there’s the random Rocky Horror night…
5.)
Rosebud Salve: Cheap and just left of Vaseline. You are SO lying if you’ve never dipped into the big tub for a little lip love.
6.) My sweetheart’s foot rubs: He has strong hands and can’t resist my pleas. I should probably return the favor sometime…er…
7.) Ibuprofen: My motto- when in doubt, just take a few ibuprofen. It’s bound to make SOMETHING feel better.

Things you would save in a fire: My two cats, shoes, KitchenAid Mixer…
First job: The morning shift at McDonalds. (Sigh)
Skincare routine: I have my bathroom stocked with pre-cleansing oil, face wash, toner, serums, day creams, night creams, eye creams, sunscreen, masks, and exfoliators. One to three of these make it on my face morning and night.
Most embarrassing moment: This could not possibly be answered here and can be found in chapters 5-8 of my upcoming memoir.
Three things you can’t live without. My hubby’s shoulder rubs, long walks in the woods and ibuprofen.
